Found this on marketplace and got the seller down to $150. Is it worth that, is it the year that he claims it is, and what repairs do I likely have to do to get it riding again?

It look like they sent a picture to chat gpt and told it to make a description but like 50 dollers of part to getting running id say and there lieing about so many thing and for that price you could get same spec bike that need no work
Yeah $150 is good. I mean you’ll have to go there and check the serial number. The seller description is clearly ai generated. I mean if you’re mechanically minded you’ll be fine. Fork service, check bearings, check spoke alignment, brakes bleed if the brakes feel weak and soft. New chain, check bottom bracket bearing. Anything that sounds like a cement mixer as it spins is bad bearing. Otherwise you’re good. Oh and derailleur hanger may be bent. Check that. If the derailleur its self is bad you’d need to replace but not a big deal assuming literally everything else I listed isn’t bad lol.
